Worst train ever!!!
Traveled yesterday (22/6/15) from TRTR to TRVL. Train reached TRTR @ 9:21 (late by 43 mnts) and waited till 9:39 (1hr delay) for garib rath to overtake. Reached PVRD @ 10:06 (1hr 07 mnts delay and waited for almost 45 mnts there for first jan shatabdi to overtake and then waited till parashuram for the crossing. The passengers were so lucky that Kerala SF was late by over 2 hrs or else it would also have overtaken this passenger. it left PVRD @ 10:45 with 1hr 45 mnts delay and reached TRVL @ 12:26 ie 2 hrs 26 mnts late. CSTM CAPE express was running late by 5+ hrs and was just behind the passenger and i dont know...
more...

if it was overtaken by cape exp somewhere after TRVL. It is always better to avoid this train if u r travelling for some emergency . our railway division is providing pathetic treatment for this train. Too bad....There was one passenger near me who took the train from aluva. He had a sleeper ticket with him and since this train reached aluva before 1 hr late running Island, he decided to get into this train. He said jan shatabdi was the 4th train to overtake this from aluva to piravom (Island garib rath janshatabdi and dont know the 4th one) .
